Today Poem by Yvonne G. Blake

Yesterday has slipped away.
Tomorrow is not here.
Life is for today.

Childhood and youth will play;
The future does not fear;
Yesterday has slipped away.

Busyness cause nerves to fray;
Work and study keep us here;
Life is for today.

Misty dreams don’t seem to stay;
Often lost, we seem to veer
Yesterday has slipped away.

Don’t lose hope along the way
Wishful goals give us cheer;
Life is for today.

Lift your head to God and pray;
Faithful, guide, ever near;
Yesterday has slipped away.
Life is for today.
